I had to cancel my plastic rectangle yesterday for fraud.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I honestly would be pretty screwed without my plastic rectangles, but I think that's why I resent them so much? Except for my Clipper card, I'm still kind of in a honeymoon stage with it. Not needing exact change for the bus is wonderful.

Mine seems to have gotten sorted out, and now I'm just waiting for my new plastic rectangle to show up in the mail. I had to write a check to my therapist yesterday. That was weird.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

So did I. Someone tried to charge $5100+ on one of my credit cards. Nordstrom Rack was on top of it and cancelled the order, but damn. And, as of this morning, I have more than 10,000 registration bot emails sitting in my spam folder. Evidently the bad guys flood you and hope you miss the order confirmation email. Too bad for them I'm staying on top of it.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Holy shit, Maria! That's ridiculous.

In other news, I'm in this awkward cycle where I'm working directly with a coworker on something, which he thinks is going well, but my boss really wants to talk to his boss about doing it differently, and I feel awkward not saying that to him, but if his boss doesn't agree with my boss, I'm not doing anything. So I'm just stalling.

On the other hand, thank goodness there was candy in the kitchen just now because I hadn't eaten any sugar all day and was starting to get withdrawal.

It's been an interesting day and I can't say why.

I hope that's good, Gud.
Damn, Maria, glad you caught it! And sympathies to everyone caught in fraudulent plastic rectangle hell! I heard something on the news about a new, um, exploit doesn't seem right but I don't know what is - apparently there is code floating around that can harvest your card number and CVV off the website as you legitimately pay for something. The advice for how to guard against it was a big shrug. Sucks.
I need to figure something out for lunch. Which is basically, vending machine or go out and pick something up.

That has to be what happened to mine, because I never lost my physical card. In fact, I used it at Five Guys about 12 hours before the fraudulent charge popped up on my account.

Man, that is some kind of bullshit.
